The American Wood Council and International Code Council have released a joint publication, Mass Timber Buildings and the IBC, which gives an overview of code changes regarding mass timber construction.
In a recent survey by the International Code Council, 26% of the more than 1,150 code-official respondents report building departments have received requests for permits for COVID-19-related facilities, including in temporary structures in alternative locations, such as school gymnasiums, hotels, outpatient surgical centers or in pop-structures in parking lots.
